chocolate playdough

March 26th, 2013|Categories: crafts|Tags: , , , |5 Comments

This has been a HUGE hit at our house. It looks and smells like chocolate cookie dough and is so much fun to play with.My kids have been making hot chocolates, cookies, muffins and cakes with this playdough. I love smelling it, it smells so good. Maybe don’t make it if your little one is keen on eating home made playdough even though it’s super salty! But if your kiddo were to eat some, at least you know it’c completely non toxic 🙂 Chocolate Playdough:1 cup of flour1/2 cup of salt1 cup of water1 Tb cream of […]

Our salt dough Easter creations! Some of these go all the way back to 2009, when a super cute 2 year old Noah made his first one! Our sweet little Easter […]

a little bathroom makeover

March 12th, 2013|Categories: A Little Delightful|Tags: , , , |14 Comments

A few weekends ago we set about to make a few little changes around the house. It always feels nice to make these little changes and I love it when we find a that perfect solution or idea. Budget is always a factor so usually I turn to Ikea as they stock such a large range and most things are really reasonably priced.In the case of our bathroom, I just really really didn’t like how it looked. It was boring and I tried to dress it up with some large photographs I had taken […]

life lately

It’s been really quiet around here lately. We have been enjoying a change of pace. A little slower, a little more relaxed, a little more all over the place. Unusual for me, a planner and scheduler my nature. Our home has been it’s usual noisy self, filled with fun and laughs, love filled moments, laundry baskets overflowing, sandy floors, birthday cakes, movie nights, neglected shower screens and piles of paperwork. We’ve been trying to settle into a new routine now that school is back. Some days we have it down pat, and others are a bit of […]
